College is full of some interesting characters. From the annoying kid in the front row who always has some sarcastic comment to make to the girl who spends the entire class online shopping, you'll run across these individuals regardless of what class or major you're in.

1. The girl who always has a question

Every five minutes this girl will raise her hand. At first, she'll appear to be a really proactive student who cares a lot about understanding her course material. But after awhile, she'll just get annoying. Open your ears, girl - the prof literally answered this question three minutes ago.

2. The guy who shows up the first day, the day of exams, and that's literally it

I don't know how they do it. I miss one class and I'm struggling...

3. The girl who is on her phone the whole timehoney boo boo texting

One minute she's on Facebook. The next, she's on Snapchat. Does this girl EVER put her phone down?

4. The annoying guy in the front row who always a sarcastic comment to make

EVERY class has this guy, without a doubt. Regardless of what your professor says, they always have a witty comment. Do they realize how annoying they are?!

5. The guy who never talks

Bless his shy little heart.

6. The girl who is friends with everyone

I'm lucky if I know two people in a lecture, but this girl seems to be best friends with literally everyone.

7. The teacher's pet

Typically this is the person sitting towards the front who always answers questions and fully participates in every class discussion. Even in a lecture full of two hundred people, your professor will still know their name.

8. The guy who watches Netflix the entire class period

I sat next to this guy last semester and it was honestly kind of annoying. Like why come to class if you're just going to binge Breaking Bad? I'd rather do that from my bed.

9. The girl who spends her time online shopping

Popular sites include American Eagle and Redbubble.

10. The guy who makes you question how hard it REALLY is to get into college

Like...he's just that stupid.

11. The girl who always shows up 5 minutes late with Starbucks

Priorities, am I right?! She's your go-to girl if you ever need a drink suggestion, though. Also, jealous of wherever she's getting her Starbucks fund...

12. The guy who literally just rolled out of bed five minutes ago

He's wearing pajama pants and his hair is the definition of a mess. C'mon, dude, this class starts at 3 p.m. Can't you look a little put together?

13. The girl who took probably an hour getting ready

She treats every class period like it's a fashion show - well thought out outfit, hair and makeup done up to the nines, making all of us with our messy buns and leggings look like crap.

14. The girl who highlights EVERYTHING

You know this girl. We all know this girl. And we all feel like failures sitting next to her and her perfectly color-coded life.

15. The girl with the Mac who types really loud constantly

There's just something about the girl with the Mac that types a mile a minute that grinds my gears in the worst of ways...

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
